Dear Sir/ Madam
Vishwa Yuvak Kendra (International Youth
Centre) is a pioneering organisation in the field of youth development. It was
established with the active support of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and was
inaugurated in 1968 by the then President of India, Dr. Zakir Husain. It
organizes workshops, seminars and training programmes for the youth workers of
NGOs.
Democracy is considered as one of the best
forms of government because it ensures liberty of thought, expression, belief,
faith and worship, equality of status and opportunity, fraternity as well as
the right to participate in political decision-making. Participation and
control of governance by the people of the country is the essence of democracy.
Such participation is possible only when the powers of the state are
decentralized to the district, block and village levels where all the sections
of the people can sit together, discuss their problems and suggest solutions
and plan execute as well as monitor the implementation of the programmes. It is
called the crux of democratic decentralization.
In a democracy, the decision-makers should use
their powers, as far as possible, with the consent and understanding of all
concerned. By way of Panchayati Raj, people participate more and more in
politics and administration. The key to the success of democracy lies where
more and more strength is given to people’s elected bodies at the district,
block and village levels. At the village level, even the poor people, including
the SCs, STs, women and other marginalized sections of the community get a
chance to participate in the administration of the village. Thus, Panchacyati
Raj is a system which ensures people’s participation at the lowest levels. It
is democracy at the base level. PRIs become a training ground for developing
leadership at the primary stage because they become well-versed with the local
problems and ways to deal with such problems,.
Thus, the PRIs can ensure grass roots democracy in
true spirit, provided that all the powers and functions regarding rural
development, along with proper resources and staff, are vested in them. This should
undoubtedly pave the way for Gram Swarajya in
India. In order to give the basic knowledge of the functions of Panchayati Raj
System, Vishwa Yuvak Kendra is going to organize a Training Programme on
Panchayati Raj from 23-25 October, 2013.
